The Global Cooling Project

About Us

The story so far

Origin

The project coordinator and principal fundraiser is Ray Taylor. Ray was
originally inspired by Michal Kravcik. He had already been working on
CO2 emissions reductions for several years, but was concerned that
dangerous warming was already starting to happen. Michal's insight was that
carefully chosen parts of the planet gave us an opportunity for global cooling
through land-atmosphere interactions.

This was tremendously exciting, if other scientists would support it, and
Ray worked hard to establish that this was the case. (See Global Cooling Science Dossier
(pdf, 7 MB)). It got better, when all the spin off benefits, especially for
Africa, became apparent.
